TuxFinder.com is pleased to announce a new logo and a new look for TuxFinder's web presence, made possible by Metalusions and the cooperative nature of the developer community.

TuxFinder's new interface, incorporating keyword-search functionality, is designed to make the site even easier to use, be more pleasing to the eye, and easily accomodate the capabilities TuxFinder will be releasing over the next few months.

"We're very happy to have the new front-end," said TuxFinder Co-Chief Olivier Macchioni. "The site continues to grow and develop, and we even manage to remain Lynx-friendly. Metalusions is an ideal design partner."

"The new design was a nice challenge," said Metalusions' Arjan Haringa. "Next to watching loading times and appearance of the site, we tried to make the new design accessible to all platforms that may use it."
